Trapped
Who is this man in front of me?
Only a shadow in the dark, a sound in the night
Yet my heart weeps for thee.
Do you even know I'm here?
You're so lost in your own world, lost from my eyes
But I hear you breathing and I know you're there
You are a storm!
A storm in my heart,
Ripping holes in the canvas of my life and if I am not careful,
You will break me.
My head burns with mad thoughts of you
My lungs heave for a breath of you
My eyes die crying in the wake of you
I cannot escape you
I scream and claw at the surface of the night
Yet it will not yield
And I am frightened, so frightened I cannot breathe
I crawl through the night searching for my escape,
Searching for the road that will lead to my salvation
Am I to be forever lost in this sea of despair?
Am I to forever wallow in this misery you have created for me?
Who will be my savior?
Surely not you?
No you cannot save me for it is you that has trapped me
And it is you, that will never let me go.
